Trying to connect LR560 PA transmitter to ABB DCS 800xA

Hi

I am trying to connect LR560 PA transmitter to ABB DCS 800xA.

I downloaded the SIEM816B.GSD File from siemens website and import it in ABB DCS library.

But It is showing only two hardware types ( that are ANALOG INPUT & FREE PLACE) as shown in attached picture.

While existing library of LR460 shows 7 hardware types (LEVEL LONG, LEVEL SHORT, MASS LONG MASS SHORT, VOLUME LONG, VOLUME SHORT, FREEPALCE)

I have to connect my input to LR560 (Level Long) that is not being shown in hardware types.

Kindly help.

Hello ggm_baga;

Looking inside the gsd file for the LR560 Profibus PA Radar level transmitter, it seems that there are only 2 analog blocks available for this instruments:; so the description from the ABB library is correct.

Look also at the screenshot below, taken from the LR560 Profbus PA operating manual. The section the screenshot is talen from is titled "Profibus PA profile structure", you should study this as it tells you exactly how the LR569 works and transits data.

The screeenshot you posted compares the structure of the gsd files for a LR560 and a LR460. It seems they do not operate along the same principles, and cannot be evaluated side-by-side.

Hope this helps,

Thanx for your Valuable time and feedback.
